- @Casliber:
- New enough (created 19 Feb); Long enough (2972 char); never been on front page before, neutral in tone, every non-lede paragraph has at least one citation; no apparent copyright violations; images in article are appropriately licensed.
- Hook is short enough, cited in article, interesting.
- I wonder if a tighter crop might be better for the hook image? Something to consider.
- But regardless of that suggestion, the hook passes. Approved.
